impulses

are these good guns?..never shot one before..heard they were heavier then most guns

If your gonna get a impy, get one from Firballmountain(a gothic). Those rip. Otherwise get a b2k4/b2k5. Those are nice to.

Get an Imp......mine weighs 3.5lbs so whoever you heard that from needs to lift weights more often. You can use C02 or N2 with an Imp. Most other medium to high end markers cannot make that claim. There are a gazillion upgrades available for them. If you shot mine you would say, "To die for". Don't listen to the broken record comments made by some on these boards about Impulses. They make the exact same whimsical asinine comments in about every thread posted about the Pulse -

with PDS

^ Also C02 is dirty.. hurts the noid. Even though your using it on an Imp.. it isnt good for it.

How does an aftermarket body make the gun faster Arikon?

Dont waste your money and time on an Imp.

That tells me that there is a lot of them being sold. Manufactrers don't process aftermarket parts for markers that aren't in great demand. Why are there so many upgrades for Timmy's and other in high demand markers? Because there is an in demand profit to be made. So as a whole, Imps are in great demand thus a great marker otherwise there would be no demand. If you were an investor, would you invest in a company that was in the Talon upgrade market? lol -

Well sure, you can actually ruin any marker on C02 if you don't mind replacing the noid and regulator parts every time you use it lol. Seems that you're a little weak in the paintball knowlege department. I will outline this one for you as well. The Max-Flo is one of only regulators that can handle C02 in a proficient manner. The Palmer's is another well known for it's capacity to handle C02 decently well. Both not only regulate but help keep liquid from passing through it. This in turn prevents liquid C02 from entering a $100 electro-pneumatic solenoid to incompacitate it. I used anti-siphoned C02 on my Impulse for over a year before I saved enough for an N2 tank and had absolutely no probs at all with it. Shots and velocity are just a bit more consistant now -

Kindly explain how nitro surpasses C02 in keeping up with the rof when a C02 tank has a higher output pressure than a regulated N2 tank. When changing from C02 to N2 on my Imp, I needed to increase the pressure because of the approximate 150+ psi decrease in pressure between the two. When testing the output pressure between My Crossy and C02 tank, the Crossy was at 750psi and the C02 tank was at 950psi. A higher pressure output from the tank will naturally feed the marker faster at a higher rate, that's elementary physics or even general logic -

Your above quoted comment is in error, the reason that it's recommended to use N2 in higher end markers is because 1) the regs cannot handle C02 & 2) the noids cannot handle it either -

So glad I could assist you in your quest for knowledge -

And even though alot of you hate smart parts they still make really good stuff. And I'm sorry but they had a right to go after AKA and trust me I love AKA they make good stuff too. I love my Imp and I still have alot of stuff to do to it...alot

the smoothness of the bore wont make a difference unless you glued sandpaper on the inside of your gun.

and smart parts DOES NOT make quality products, every smart parts product or smart parts affiliated product i have owned has had terrible quality.

impys are sick i own 3 but go for the rat jr and trick it out.......and no it isnt heavy

The only reason there are a ton of upgrades for the Impy is because tons of little kids go crying to their mommies because they want the new-fangled gadgets. The reason they have Impys is because they didn't do their homework. B2k4 owns an Impy any day.
